Most tvs have a channel selector not far from the on/off switch.

Just what we need .... more sex. That should drive up the sale of condoms and abortions, right? (/sarc)

I must have missed that episode of Rome. All the shows that the author is talking about are on cable.

Those first few years of NYPD Blue were pretty explicit, nudity, there were a couple of scenes of David Caruso which left nothing to the imagination, several episodes, and they were on network prime time, not cable. I didn't watch too many of the Jimmy Smits years, none later, so I don't know if they kept it up, but I recall that was the major selling point of the show, that Bochco was pushing the boundaries of network TV.

I thought the only thing you saw on NYPD Blue was butt.

No full frontal, though there were some breast shots — by nothing to the imagination, I’m talking action, you knew precisely what was going on.

My husband & I were commenting on this too. They canceled The Unit (Special Forces drama) and even the new Stargate(scifi)had a sex scene in the first few scenes. Not an implied one but thrusting & groaning.

We are reevaluating our TV intake.

You can always boycott. After a while, you don’t miss it. Videos only here, much healthier for the children.

More than anything, what ticks me off, is the placement of very age inappropriate advertising of products/programming during children’s (or family) programs.
